Detailed explanation-1: -Solutions that contain the same concentration of water and solutes as the cell cytoplasm are called isotonic solutions. Cells placed in an isotonic solution will neither shrink nor swell since there is no net gain or loss of water.

Detailed explanation-2: -An isotonic solution is one with a salt concentration that is exactly equal to that of blood cells. If the surrounding solution has the same salt concentration as the solution inside the cell, the surrounding solution is referred to as isotonic.

Detailed explanation-3: -An isotonic solution is any external solution that has the same solute concentration and water concentration compared to body fluids. In an isotonic solution, no net movement of water will take place.

Detailed explanation-4: -Isotonic solutions have the same osmotic pressure and same concentration.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hypertonic has a higher concentration of fluid, sugars and salt than blood. Isotonic has similar concentration of fluid, sugars and salt to blood.
